Since the celebrated twist phase was proposed by Simon and Mukunda, despite the tremendous progress made in theory over the past decades, developing a simple and flexible experimental method to customize this novel phase has long been a tricky challenge. In this Letter, we demonstrate a general experimental method for generating twisted Schell-model beams by implementing the continuous coherent beam integral function in a discrete form. Experimental results based on rigorous Laguerre-Gauss modes superposition are also demonstrated, indicating that our method is more convenient and of higher quality. The twist factor is also measured using the rotation characteristics during propagation, and the results agree well with the theoretical prediction. The method could serve as a general way for customizing bona fide twisted cross-spectral densities while facilitating certain applications. (C) 2020 Optical Society of America
